I've been on Bet6v8 since yesterday afternoon.
All my apps work perfectly. I had to delete and reload Slacker after the install. but later discovered Slacker was upgraded to 2.0.41 from .39 that I had on previously and works fine now.
Version shows 4.7.0.167 platform 4.0.0.186
Memory is solid as it was on v7, loads up with 41.80 mg with all my apps.
Battery life seems a bit better than v7 but a little too early to tell yet.
All in all, great. I'm a happy camper

Been up and running for a little over 24 hours. So far very solid. All apps work fine. Memory has been quit stable. So far no problems. I would say it is close on my phone during the first 24 as OOAK 7.99b. It was almost perfect.

installed 8.5 this morning and so far all is good. worth if for me to switch to 6v8 or 7.99??? what makes these 2 better than 8.5?

As we know all phones seem to react different. So far I would rate OOAK V7.99B with the 151 radio the best. That is not by much over the Beta6V8. I have not loaded OOAK 7.99D yet with the 148 radio. If you listen to Slacker/Pandora for extended periods of time you might want to try it. If you don't use those my best so far is OOAK V7.99B.:laugh2:

Might give OOAK V7.99B a try Monday. Been using 5.0 since it was leaked. Liked a lot about it. Didn't have any problems with it. No resets, nothing. Didn't like the way 5.0 mashed up the text in the browser though. Opera was also a bit slow. More pros the cons in my situation. Either way wanted something a little more app compatible. Might just give all three a try, giving each time to settle. Will see which one "likes" my storm best

What where the differences that you noted that would rate OOAK V7.99B slightly better than Beta6V8?

On my Storm the transistions seam to be a little smoother. I also get about 2MB more of free memory. The memory has been very solid with very little movement. It does a little better and Beat6V8. I think both are very good. I just installed OOAK 7.99D with the 148 radio since I use Slacker a lot. I am getting ready to see how this does compared to 7.99B.
